Chapter 113: Go to Yizhou

Cao Xin, who returned to Yizhou, was still very angry in his heart.

In this life, there are many dangerous situations he has encountered that are more dangerous than this time in the Deep State, but he has never been as desperate as this time.

In the past, no matter how dangerous the situation was, he always had a sword in his hand, loyal subordinates by his side, and brothers who fought together, even in the face of a desperate situation, but still had hope in his heart.

But that night, he was really scared.

"The knots are no longer the same knots." Cao Xin sighed and said to Wang Wenshu. Wang Wenshu, who listened to Cao Xin's story, also looked panicked. Do you know that the only chance we had to get back that night was to kill Suning with lightning speed, at that time, I saw that Li Anmin had moved a few steps quietly, and I also pretended to persuade him to get closer. Hmph, Suning thought he was seamless, didn't he know that when he pushed the door and entered and reprimanded the Jiedu envoy, we had already guessed what he wanted to do, he was indeed the most unsuccessful of the Su family brothers."

"That's true, if the Su family is still alive, where will they give you such a chance." Wang Wenshu also knew the other brothers of the Su family.

"We have followed the festival for decades, and everyone can understand every action and a look, and Suning is just self-righteous. It's a pity that the festival envoy didn't say anything at that time." Cao Xin was a little angry. In the end, let's put our lives on the kindness of Li Che's woman, do you know how I got over that night?"

"After all, it's his son, who knows his son!" Wang Wenshu comforted.

"Knowing the son is more than the father!" Cao Xin snorted coldly: "He still thinks that this is his son, even if something happens, he won't really hurt him, right?" But what about me?"

"The eldest prince is still a loyal man." Wang Wenshu smiled: "Brother-in-law, isn't this all right?" The eldest prince is generous, this is the gospel of our people."

After listening to Wang Wenshu's words, Cao Xin was silent.

For a long time, but he smiled bitterly.

"That night, I have never been so eager that our eldest prince is a loyal and honest person who remembers the old love, and I hope that he will never be as decisive and ruthless as Jiedu when he was young."

"But when I survived this catastrophe and came back safely, I was extremely disappointed that he was not as powerful as the Jiedu Envoy."

Wang Wenshu was a little surprised: "Brother-in-law, what do you say?" Isn't it good to have a merciful Lord?"

"That's not mercy, that's a woman's kindness." Cao Xin sneered: "If I were to be in his position, I would not hesitate to give the order to mutiny."

Wang Wenshu gasped.

"The world is about to be chaotic, and it is not necessarily a good thing to have a lord who is kind to a woman. In troubled times, competing for hegemony in the world, have you ever seen a woman with the kindness of a woman win? If he fails, how can we survive? How can our family survive?" Cao Xin looked at Wang Wenshu.

"Brother-in-law, it's not that serious, is it?"

"Or not!" Cao Xin shrugged: "It's best not to let Gongsun Changming's crow mouth say yes, but he says that the good is not effective, and if he says the bad, it will be nine times out of ten."

Hearing Cao Xin say this, Wang Wenshu could only smile bitterly.

"That's it, let's do whatever we need to do! I still have to do my best to support this war, and the next heavy grain and grass to be transported to the deep state will be taken over by Mingyi. His caravan is more than enough for these supplies."

"Then there is no conscription?"

"Spring ploughing has passed, and conscription still has to be levied. Water conservancy needs to be renovated, roads need to be repaired, no matter what happens on the front line, we can do what we have to do!" Cao Xin waved his hand a little tiredly.

In addition to sending 500 armor soldiers and thousands of soldiers, Yizhou only produced some grain and grass, which did not have a big impact on the entire Yizhou. In many places, the people know where the war is going on again because they paid another bill for the war and paid an extra tax.

Chengde has not fought for more than ten years, and Li Anguo still pays more attention to supporting the people, so after paying such a tax, the life of the common people can still go on. As for conscription, it has to be done every year anyway. Whether it is water conservancy or road construction, although it is very hard, they can still get some benefits from it in the end, but they are not very resistant. As soon as the government gave an order, he took his own guys, prepared dry food and set off.

Yizhou is an alluvial plain, the terrain is relatively low-lying, the summer is high temperature and little rain, the winter is cold and dry, the four seasons are distinct, and the sun is abundant. In the same period of cold and drought, rain and heat are in the same season, but it is extremely conducive to the growth of crops, there are many rivers in the wind, there are salt rivers in the east, Suolu River in the south, Xisha River and other rivers in the southwest and west.

There are many rivers so that Yizhou is extremely rich in water resources, but also let Yizhou from time to time be threatened by floods, in summer, when the weather gradually warms up, it is also the time when the rain is the most, so the water conservancy project after spring ploughing, flood control and waterlogging prevention is one of the most important things in Yizhou.

This time, Cao Xin personally went out to inspect a construction site and a construction site, and such a thing naturally didn't need him, the biggest guy in Yizhou, to come out, but now he needs to keep himself busy without his feet, and only when he is busy and tired can he calm down his very irritated heart.

At night, I returned to my lodgings and fell asleep, just quietly waiting for news from the front.

From now on, it seems that everything is going well.

In any case, victory is always good, and the news of victory that keeps coming has dispelled the haze in Cao's confidence little by little, and his mentality is getting better day by day.

So when Wang Mingyi rode to the Xisha River, he was shocked to see his uncle Cao Xin barefoot and rolled up his trouser legs, trying to lift the silt from the riverbed to the embankment.

It is a scene of harmony with the people.

But Wang Mingyi's mouth opened wide, in his reflection, his uncle looked like this, but he had never seen it.

Poured two pinches of soil on the embankment, walked barefoot to Wang Mingyi's side, the guards had already brought water, Cao Xin washed his hands, and looked at Wang Mingyi's surprised look and smiled: "What's so strange about this, although your uncle has been promoted and served as a jinshi, but the Cao family is a farmer and a family heirloom, and farm work, but he has also done it since he was a child, unlike you, who have never done these jobs at all. Would you like to try it?"

Hearing his uncle say this, Wang Mingyi waved his hand again and again, and touched his belly in embarrassment, "Still no, no, I really haven't done this, no."

Cao Xin laughed and reached out and patted Wang Mingyi's belly, "You should lose weight, don't be like your father, he has been getting fatter and fatter year by year over the years, I think back then, he also went to the battlefield to kill the enemy with a knife, and now, it is difficult to walk a few steps, your eldest brother is not bad!" Practice more when you're fine."

"Yes, uncle, I will definitely practice more martial arts in the future." Wang Mingyi said with a smile, for fear that Cao Xin would drag him to dig the mud on a whim, and it would be miserable.

Sitting on top of the small maza, Cao Xin looked at Wang Ming while washing his feet: "Brought me good news from the front line again?" Did it hit the Yingzhou Governor's Office? Or is Shi Jing the head?"

Seeing that Wang Mingyi had found this place, Cao Xin certainly knew that this time his happiness with the people would come to an end.

"Neither. There's no latest news from the front line yet." Wang Mingyi squatted beside Cao Xin, lowered his voice and said, "Uncle, the one from Wuyi came over and found me, saying that he wanted to see his uncle. This is really difficult to do, and if I dare to admit it, even my father can't make up his mind, so I have to let me come to my uncle and decide for yourself."

Cao Xin was stunned.

"The one in Wuyi?"

Wang Mingyi nodded vigorously.

Cao Xin thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "It seems that Gongsun Changming must have given this person the news, so it seems that our Mr. Gongsun is really good to this one in Wuyi!" This probably knew what happened that night, so he came to me to probe my tone and see if there was any chance of winning me?"

"Is that going to be the case?" Wang Mingyi asked.

"It doesn't matter if he's like this or not, don't you know everything when you see him?" Cao Xin wiped his feet, put on his boots, took off his muddy clothes in three or two times, and put on his official uniform again.

"Has my uncle decided to see him? If people know, will there be some misunderstandings?" Wang Mingyi asked cautiously.

"You are also worried. You go and arrange a proper place, and I will meet him, as long as this person does not set foot in my assassin's mansion, he will not attract the attention of other people. This is also a proper person, since it was you who found you first, it proves that he doesn't want to attract attention with great fanfare, right?" Cao Xin said with a smile.

"Now I have placed them in one of my courtyards, which is very quiet, and few people know about it." Wang Mingyidao.

"That's it, I'm really curious about this little boy, to be honest." Cao Xin: "Look at his methods, they are really very good, and it is really a pity not to see them in person. Gongsun Changming said that this little boy is much more powerful than our eldest son."

"That's right." Wang Mingyi actually nodded as a matter of course: "It can be seen that he held Wuyi firmly in his hand in three times and two times, uncle, now I am afraid that even if you want to take back Wuyi, it will be impossible, unless you send troops to fight."

"Do you want to say that even if you fight, you can't necessarily win?"

"It's going to be a hassle anyway." Wang Mingyi laughed.

Cao Xin pursed his lips, turned over and rode on the horse that the guards were riding, and whipped it hard, as if flying away.

At this time, in a quiet courtyard in Yizhou City, Li Ze was standing under a peach tree, admiring the pink peach blossoms of the tree with great interest.
